# Backrefs

Current Version: 5.0.0

Wraps the Python `re` or `regex` module to provide additional back references. `regex` support only available if `sublime-regex` dependency is installed as well.

## Overview

Backrefs was written to add various additional back references that are known to some regex engines, but not to Python's re or regex.  The back references that are added differ depending on the regular expression engine being used as some back references may already be supported.

To learn more about what backrefs can do, read the [official documentation](http://facelessuser.github.io/backrefs/).
